Im a sailor in the Singapore Navy and I always had great respect for the US Navy. Unlike the US Navy, our ships go out and we rarely have to stay out for more than a week except during exercises. Personally I love ship life but it does get repetitive after awhile so you find other things you wouldn't normally do to keep yourself sane. When you're out, you're reminded that anything can happen. The bond between the crew is what keeps you going, and your family back home reminds you of your duty.
As a usmc vet. This video makes battle ships look like a cruise ship. We were always tight to each other, the ship wasn’t always steady, disease was fast spread, medical was minimal, and RAS(replenishment at sea)always sucked because you’d have to be in line passing items for hours at times. Connection with the world was minimal and getting irritated of people happened real quick real fast. I loved my experience it was hell but id never wanna do it again. I respect anyone that loves ship life
Unnecessary death! Yes a hero! But if there is no idea of wars, he could have done much much more. He must be a hero for the colleagues he saved for being humbled by his selfless act which I hope in turn would start to help them learn the stupidity of wars.
@@milaong9618 No one sane wants war, but you also have to be prepared for it. Truth of the matter is, these men would rather not fight a war, but they're willing too if it means they can protect their loved ones and their rights, and secure their livelihood through a (mostly) consistent way of life. You're naive if you think these men all want for war, or think it's some great thing...
As a Marine from the Viet Nam era I want to thank my Navy friends for all their transport, logistical support, medical support and a thousand other things that they do for us. Without you guys we would be greatly diminished! Semper Fi my brothers on the waves!
Look how seamless they get back on ship. I remember my Amtrak driver taking several attempts in high seas trying to get back on the ship. Nothing worse than being in that steel can struggling to get back on board.
I dig how these ships can carry so much lethality against shore targets all in one ship, compared to a carrier group. Air support on board an assault ship can go a lot of ways.
Well there's a fundamental difference; at the end of the day a carriers primary role is to project, establish and maintain air superiority. All the aircraft on an amphibious assault ship however are there as support for infantry and other ground units.
Thank you to all those who are serving and have served. I live everyday thinking about how I can "earn" the sacrifices you all have made for me and my family. Thank you again.
As a Marine on board the USS New Orleans, I loved my time at sea. Amphibious assaults were the shit! Loved all of it, the adrenaline, the fear, the rush.
The amphibious assault ship's of today are spectacular! In my day we floated around on LSTs and I was even deployed to the USS Francis Marion a old WWII troop carrier compared to today's assault ship's we were riding around like Barney and Fred!

@@roberthepburn7461 I was on the Inchon 1982-84. Caribbean cruise??? Did you ever have the pleasure of training in Gitmo???? It was after Gitmo I struck out of deck department into OPS. EW2 at discharge.
I was on carriers my entire time in the navy-USS KittyHawk & USS Roosevelt.On the KittyHawk I was ship's company and on the Roosevelt I was attached to VF-84 ( Jolly-Rogers) an attack squadron attached to Roosevelt's air-wing. GO-NAVY !!! LOL.
Served onboard the USS Tarawa LHA 1. Best time I had while I was in the Navy. Anyone still in the Navy reading this or anyone wanting to join/have family members wanting to join, I highly recommend you serve onboard a big deck amphib.
My ex wife was on LHA 5 Peleliu. I went on the ship many times. I went on it many times It was a rust pit. I also went on the USS Kitty Hawk. Only two navy ships i have been on.
As a Swedish marine "Amfibie Soldat, also translated: amphibious soldier", this is just amazing have huge respect for you guys. This looks like the ship that was used in recent military drills in the Baltic Sea, it might actually be the same one that ancored in Stockholm this summer. Really hope Turkey stop this nonsens so we can officially be allies, even though in my mind we have always been. Edit: it was USS Kearsarge that was in Stockholm also have number 3 in this shipline.

Served my tour on LPD-11 in the mid '70's. Worked in the aft engine room which was directly under the well deck. Every time the ship ballasted down to flood the well deck the overhead of our engine room would sweat. Since the temps in the engine room were HOT this sweat would form drops of very hot water & fall on us.
LPD-12 USS Shreveport mid '70's also (Atlantic Fleet). Attended basic/school in SDiego . Worst time was drydock for complete repair and overhaul for over a year. Horrible working conditions , paint chipper noise, no a/c in the South in summer. This was after we got hit real hard Feb 76 off Cape Hatteras NC. Go Gators ~! Taxi cab for the Marines !

I served voluntarily. Draftees were still around and a large percentage resented being uprooted like that. Many were lied to as to their eventual assignments. Drug use was high.

As a Air Force veteran, I just want to say the Air Force is the best, better than all the rest. Though these amphibious ship rock. Navy pilots are crazy and those landings are controlled crashes but you guys do it with style!

How many of these amphibious assault ships with f-35s do we currently have deployed or ready to deploy. Seems like they were great before. But now with 2 dozen 35's parked outside they are damn near unstoppable. I knew we have what is it 11 carriers. I had no idea these ships were so badass. Do they travel with strike groups like carriers do?
@@davegordon6943Do you guys talk about Taiwan much in your missions? i always though the primary focus mission for the big deck amphib crew with so much firepower is to do with Taiwan but i also know Taiwan and the US military have no coordinated training exercises, so it would be crazy to think crews on amphibs prepare for a mission on territory they have no practice on. The US has 2 with 20 f-35B and is building 11 in total but the remaining 9 will have 1/2 1/3rd capacity for f-35b's, the rest will be for marines/landing forces. currently there are 7 amphibs that the US has available right now that can carry around 6 f-35b's each but they are getting replaced. so if all 11 were active that would be close to 100 f-35B and well over 10,000 Marines. Working with AUS forces you're getting to 15,000 soldiers, 100 fighter jets and a score of helicopters. The one major issue is most of this force projection will be for a Taiwan contingency and none of these forces have any training with Taiwan.
As a United States marine that has been on ships like this I’ve seen how hard the navy works to keep the ship running, I know they dint like us marines much as while they were working to get us where we needed to be much thanks to them
Two seven month floats as an Air Wing Marine aboard LHA-4 Nassau. She definitely did not have all of the accommodations they show here. This video doesn’t give you a true understanding of life aboard these LHAs/LHDs.
@@brucew7062 yes, as a former Marine it was crazy! Not the biggest ship but I got lost constantly. Just like always we made it a circus and some things I cant discuss here lol. I was standing in the hangar deck next to the elevator watching the sunset when I realized that in Top Gun, Maverick was in the same spot except on a carrier and I had that moment and about that same moment I looked down and realized my brand new pressed fatigues were touching the chains covered in black grease. Ruined my uniform and my moment 🤣🤣🤣
Really missed my time on the USS Belleau Wood (LHA 3). Best memories of my life. So sad to see them use it for target practice and sink it off Hawaii. It didn't go down easy though. Served under Captains Highfill, Townes and Ruehe.
This isn't a supercarrier. We have already had supercarriers for a long time. The Ford class won't really be bigger than the Nimitz class. It is still very impressive though...

@@powerbad696 THIS isn't a joke dude , most patriotic reader , I recently received an email from a navy recruiter offering me a $50,000 service reenlistment bonus for a four-year contract, I recently submitted a request to the United States Coast Guard on what I could receive for service reenlistment bonus to activate my commission as a lieutenant commander, I have not yet received their lucrative offer but I'm listening 🙏🙏
Most of you know that the marines are “basically” a part of the navy. Wouldn’t it be cool if the historical structural and organizational development of the army airborne paratroopers had developed where they were part of the air force. They jump out of planes, the air force has big transport planes, the navy has marines, so naturally the air force should have the department of the airborne corps. They could be responsible for defense of airbases and can act as a large, rapid insertion force utilizing the air force’s global reach. It would make sense. But the really cool thought is when the space force gets large space ships, the navy can transfer its duties and personnel to space carrier missions and the they could fold in the marine corp to be space marines. Its not just sci fi, we are living in the historical events as they are still just the seeds.
just watching those amphibious tracked vehicles, with the water lapping up close to the man hole with the driver just sitting in there, it looks like the damned thing could sink at any moment ! what happens if a huge wave , from like a bomb blast goes over it ? I wonder how much ingressing water it would take to sink one of those things !!

Not really. Taiwan and it’s navy reach is so small, there would be no need to have an Amphibious Assault Ship like this. Amphibious Assault Ships are used for things related to beach landings, mobile command bases, etc. You would only use a mobile command base in the center of the ocean so you can have a sort of base there, it would make no sense to place it by an island, because you could just make a physical base there. They need destroyers, corvettes, etc.

AAVs are definitely not hitting 30 knots in the water, more like 8. I think you may have got them confused with the stats from a LCAC. But those are actually faster.
I agree. The EFV was going to replace the AAV years ago but they were to complicated and broke down often. Watch some videos on those. You could waterski behind it. Very cool
Back in the late 80s, as a Marine, I was on the USS Shreveport LPD-12 and was accompanied by the USS LHA-4 ship. Spent a total of a year and 10 days on the Shreveport. (two Mediterranean floats ) and it was home away from home when visiting ports and training with different counties. Won't forget the cramp berthing areas for the Marines and great chow. Semper Fi...
I'm an OIF-era Marine vet. I deployed on the USS Iwo Jima with the 24th MEU. As part of workups, I went to Mississippi and Louisiana on the USS Whidbey Island to help with Hurricane Katrina. I can say my time on ship sucked...but also was the most enjoyable. Almost made me wish I joined the Navy. Long chow lines. Long lines for the phone. Long lines for the PX. Steel Beaches. Listening to Harriers take off from the flight deck. Riding LCACs into the Well Deck. An amazing experience. I miss it almost 20 years later.

The US has 2 with 20 f-35B and is building 11 in total but the remaining 9 will have 1/2 1/3rd capacity for f-35b's, the rest will be for marines/landing forces. currently there are 7 amphibs that the US has available right now that can carry around 6 f-35b's each but they are getting replaced. so if all 11 were active that would be close to 100 f-35B and well over 10,000 Marines.

The one major issue is most of this force projection will be for a Taiwan contingency and none of these forces have any training with Taiwan.
So proud of the crew and our military for keeping us safe. God bless.
This isn't a defensive ship though, this one is all about taking the fight to the enemy.

As a United States marine that has been on ships like this I’ve seen how hard the navy works to keep the ship running, I know they dint like us marines much as while they were working to get us where we needed to be much thanks to them
Omg toàn boy đẹp. Tàu này có tuyển nguời quét dọn không nhỉ😘😘😘🤣🤣🤣
My brother was on the U.S.S. Nassau LHA-4 a few years ago both the LHD's and LHA's are impressive
Same here Marine on Bataan and Nassau.
I was on the Nassau for 30 days. Part of the 26th MEU. It was a great experience. That was like 97-98.
Two seven month floats as an Air Wing Marine aboard LHA-4 Nassau. She definitely did not have all of the accommodations they show here. This video doesn’t give you a true understanding of life aboard these LHAs/LHDs.
@@brucew7062 yes, as a former Marine it was crazy! Not the biggest ship but I got lost constantly. Just like always we made it a circus and some things I cant discuss here lol.
I was standing in the hangar deck next to the elevator watching the sunset when I realized that in Top Gun, Maverick was in the same spot except on a carrier and I had that moment and about that same moment I looked down and realized my brand new pressed fatigues were touching the chains covered in black grease. Ruined my uniform and my moment 🤣🤣🤣

My two younger first cousins are in the New Zealand navy. Much respect to all navy seals men
Really missed my time on the USS Belleau Wood (LHA 3). Best memories of my life. So sad to see them use it for target practice and sink it off Hawaii. It didn't go down easy though. Served under Captains Highfill, Townes and Ruehe.
I used load and unload the Belleau Wood in White Beach, when I was stationed at Camp Foster Okinawa.
An immense pride in seeing all these powerful machines with which freedom is defended and built in the world.
I helped build LHD 2, 3, 4, and 5. So proud
I found your pint of Jack Daniels hidden in some starboard wing wall ductwork on the Saipan. It went down smoothly. 😆

To think their new supercarrier class will be even larger is just an insane feat of human engineering. Quite literally going to be a city on water.
This isn't a supercarrier. We have already had supercarriers for a long time. The Ford class won't really be bigger than the Nimitz class. It is still very impressive though...
GOD BLESS USA FROM INDONESIA
9:10 that is not footage from an assault ship. Those are F-18’s.
No sir. Those are F-35Bs. VSTOL. Replaced the Harrier.

Wow,,, kapal besar America👍👍👌👌🇮🇩🇮🇩Salam dari indonesia
I was on two Tarawa Class LHA's for nearly 9 years. USS Bealleau-Wood LHA-3 & USS Tarawa LHA-1. Very similar to the Wasp Class. Worked in CIC.
LHA-3 Team Spirit '81
I served on the USS Belleau Wood from Jan 87 until June 89 in V-3 div.
@@ookapelirekkars6156 LHA-3 Team Spirit '87 and '89!
@@elwin38 Oorah!!
My son is in the USS wasp serving right now. I am so proud.
I believe the UH-1Y is usually referred to as the "Huey Venom" and the AH-1Z the "Viper" or "Zulu Cobra", the Supercobra being the AH-1W
There's so much wrong with this narration, plus sloppy or lazy editing getting the wrong video with it, I gave up.
Cool pictures is about all I can say.
Cool 😎, Soaring ...to the Sky...
I served on USS America LHA 6 and the now Decommissioned USS Bonhomme Richard LHD 6 (shown in this video). Definitely milestones in my career on both.
I've also spent some time on the America, but as a Marine.
Hello
2:50 The ship also has a grocery store on board to supply the crew with necessary essentials
Guy buys Monster Energy XD
Brings back my memories onboard the USS Belleau Wood (LHA-3). Greatest time in the Navy. 1988 - 1992 - OI Division
🦅🇺🇸🦅 Hey swabby , I served on the Belluea Woods also Back in 1977 , while in 2 ND Battlion 3 Rd Marine Regiment , United States Marine Corps , when I reenlisted in the Navy I couldn't turn down that 16,000 service reenlistment bonus, ❤️❤️❤️‼️ Haze Gray and Under Way is the Navy Way ♦️♦️♦️‼️👌
@@davidstaudohar6733 Holyshit Bro!! 2/3 Myself hell look at my name lol 89 to 94 Semper Fi!!! Floated on the Dubuque and Frederick in my day!!!
@@foxco2378 Semper Fidelis Thank U 4 serving in the Marine Corps , 👌👍👍👍 ‼️ it's always nice to talk with another Marine , I was passed around like a bowl of popcorn when I served ,I was in All 3 Battlions in the. 3rd Regiment , and then served TAD with 2nd Recon , Delta special Forces and Lancer Aviation tactical Air command , Going from an enlisted Man to a battlefield commission as 2nd Louie then back to an enlisted guy was a difficult transition , Maybe that's why they called us Mustang's ❓❓❓ 🦅🇺🇸🦅
@@davidstaudohar6733 I would've have turned down 16,000 either !!! LOL.
@@powerbad696 THIS isn't a joke dude , most patriotic reader , I recently received an email from a navy recruiter offering me a $50,000 service reenlistment bonus for a four-year contract, I recently submitted a request to the United States Coast Guard on what I could receive for service reenlistment bonus to activate my commission as a lieutenant commander, I have not yet received their lucrative offer but I'm listening 🙏🙏

Most of you know that the marines are “basically” a part of the navy. Wouldn’t it be cool if the historical structural and organizational development of the army airborne paratroopers had developed where they were part of the air force. They jump out of planes, the air force has big transport planes, the navy has marines, so naturally the air force should have the department of the airborne corps. They could be responsible for defense of airbases and can act as a large, rapid insertion force utilizing the air force’s global reach. It would make sense. But the really cool thought is when the space force gets large space ships, the navy can transfer its duties and personnel to space carrier missions and the they could fold in the marine corp to be space marines. Its not just sci fi, we are living in the historical events as they are still just the seeds.
Airborne Operations are outdated. Also, were not going to have actual military personnel patrolling space for atleast another 100 years.

I served on USS Makin Island LHD8, I’m actually one of the plankowners.

That's amazing. As a Chinese, I respect you us navy.
Spent 6 months on the USS Denver doing a west pac. Some good memories, but not sure I'd do it again
Why not O-Mighty one ???
@@powerbad696 ?
The Denver was in rough shape when she deployed with my ship in 2000.

Nice! I was wondering when they would look into this one.
Great power nation America....this is the reason why they are still the best 👌 👍
just watching those amphibious tracked vehicles, with the water lapping up close to the man hole with the driver just sitting in there, it looks like the damned thing could sink at any moment ! what happens if a huge wave , from like a bomb blast goes over it ? I wonder how much ingressing water it would take to sink one of those things !!
It has happened, even in training.

Did a tiger cruise on the USS Kearsarge (LHD-3). Man what a trip that was.... Badass
The sheer power of the US military is mindblowing.
TAIWAN NEEDS THIS SHIP.
Not really. Taiwan and it’s navy reach is so small, there would be no need to have an Amphibious Assault Ship like this. Amphibious Assault Ships are used for things related to beach landings, mobile command bases, etc. You would only use a mobile command base in the center of the ocean so you can have a sort of base there, it would make no sense to place it by an island, because you could just make a physical base there. They need destroyers, corvettes, etc.

AAVs are definitely not hitting 30 knots in the water, more like 8. I think you may have got them confused with the stats from a LCAC. But those are actually faster.
I agree. The EFV was going to replace the AAV years ago but they were to complicated and broke down often. Watch some videos on those. You could waterski behind it. Very cool
@@abboman8319 Ah yes, the EFV. AKA: The Expeditious Funds Vacuum.
Just wanna say, I pray for are Troops. GOD BLESS THEM 🙏❤
Back in the late 80s, as a Marine, I was on the USS Shreveport LPD-12 and was accompanied by the USS LHA-4 ship. Spent a total of a year and 10 days on the Shreveport. (two Mediterranean floats ) and it was home away from home when visiting ports and training with different counties. Won't forget the cramp berthing areas for the Marines and great chow. Semper Fi...
As if you're in a movie like Battleship is a good movie you can watch 100 times never gets bored💕💕💕
Until you see one of these up close in person it’s hard to understand the true size of one of these
Incoming "As a" comments 😂
😂😂😂
As a Billion $ Amphibious Assault Ship, I don't approve of these camo ants climbing all over acting like they run me!
I'm an OIF-era Marine vet. I deployed on the USS Iwo Jima with the 24th MEU. As part of workups, I went to Mississippi and Louisiana on the USS Whidbey Island to help with Hurricane Katrina. I can say my time on ship sucked...but also was the most enjoyable. Almost made me wish I joined the Navy. Long chow lines. Long lines for the phone. Long lines for the PX. Steel Beaches. Listening to Harriers take off from the flight deck. Riding LCACs into the Well Deck. An amazing experience. I miss it almost 20 years later.
I spent 2 years onboard Uss iwo jima LHD7 it was very tough doing welldeck operations especially with the lcu
